Pitlochry Dam Visitor Centre – Parking Overflow
Around 40 car parking spaces are available at the Pitlochry Dam Visitor Centre after it closes at 4pm which is a short 10-15 minute walk from the departures point at Fishers Hotel.
There is limited street lighting in this area, so we advise you use a torch and follow the walking directions on Google Maps here to take you into town.
We politely request that you don’t park here before 4pm to allow visitors to Pitlochry Dam Visitor Centre to use the car park.
Pitlochry Festival Theatre – Parking Overflow
Around 120 car parking spaces are available at the Pitlochry Festival Theatre which is a short 15 minute walk from the departures point at Fishers Hotel. The short walk does include crossing the River Tummel on the iron suspension bridge, known locally as the “shoogly bridge” because it moves slightly as you walk across it.
We advise you use a torch if you are using this route and follow the walking directions on Google Maps here to take you into town. The Theatre is closed at night currently so if you require a comfort stop, please use the facilities at Fishers Hotel.
